Grilling and Floating

Eric and his family came to Chatfield for one night of the Labor Day weekend. As soon as they got set up, we went to their campsite and grilled steaks for dinner.

The next morning, we went out on Chatfield Lake on their pontoon boat for breakfast. Eric started up their propane stove/over, which the salesman where they purchased it called the "easy bake oven for men."

We ate pancakes which Kylie had mixed up.

while watching the Canada Geese fly by and passing sail boats.

There were hot air balloons floating around the park. This one was landing on the far shore.

Kylie and John spent some time fishing before we had to return to shore so both families could vacate our campsite by noon. They went home, we just moved to a different site for the next 11 days.

About Me

"Where are we going? We don't know. When will we get there? We're not certain. All we know is we are on our way." With thanks to the theme song from "Paint Your Wagon" (slightly modified).
We no longer have a 5th wheel--we traded it in for an Airstream travel trailer--but we still wander when we are not in our Arizona winter home.
We are retired (since the year we turned 60). We were full-time RVers 2009-2013. Our Colorado home is still rented to others. This adventure is taking us all over North America and helping us to appreciate and understand how people live and what a wonderful world God has created. We tried to give back by volunteering in state and national parks and fish and wildlife facilities for 9 years. We also enjoy pursuing our hobbies of walking, weight training, photography, genealogy, carving, wood turning and reading. Follow along as we enjoy this wonderful world.
